Another object of the invention is to produce a compound fuel for use with locomotive boilers or for use on steamships or for stationary boilers and furnaces which shall be comparatively light in weight, which will not produce cinclers nor ashes when burned, which will produce a high degree oLheat for a great length of time, which can be packed in a small compass and which can be produced at comparatively low cost.
